Still not working over a network for me. 😡

Biggest feature I see is finally being able to change water color.. I can finally get rid of dark blue ocean water, hopefully..

If im not mistaken the rex guys claim it still works with AS if you leave SF running in the background. Im with you though, I dont see it doing anything with AS for a weather engine.

I often wonder if the cloud model sync is doing anything on my network with AS for a weather engine. Yes the button is there to enable it and yes it says in the interface that its working but it just doesnt seem to be as impressive as it is with the rex weather engine on. If you want to run rex for your weather engine cloud sync does work nicely over a network.

Not really surprised by XP numbers. Seems like everything flight sim related that I scroll past now on FB (news or new products) is for XP, devs seem to be flocking to it.

Are you guys enabling the Daedelus repaints with this setup? Will it give you more models with repaints by doing so? Also after running this I still have too many old Southwest liveries, is there anyway I can change this? Thanks again.

Hey guys. I got this up and running and the new repaints show up in the sim but I keep getting a CTD "UCRTBase.dll" any ideas what I should look for? Only using FLAI packThanks. ______EDIT______ I think I got this sorted by fixing the aircraft.cfgs in the error log

Ditch nvidia inspector and enable DSR. Before I went to 4K thats what I had to use to get rid of jaggies, DSR will also allow you to back off the AA in the sim.

Come on B17 :)

Agree with downscc. 250 is too small, I have a 1tb M.2 drive. Faster boot times is the only improvement Ive seen.

Anyone picked up on this yet? http://pcsimulators.org/index.php/flightsimulators/prepar3d/lockheed-martin-interview

The only thing Ive done with my router is assign specific ip addresses for both pc's, I was under the impression that I wouldnt have to change anything else in router settings if I had both machines on a private network (via cable) with the C drives shared. Ill give it a try, Technically I have two configs on the AS machine. One in the my documents folder and one in the simconnect files folder in the HiFi directory. CHange them both? HI Jozef, Im sort of a networking noob, I have no idea what VPN is. Port 500 came from the xml file that was created in the simconnect folder (HIFi Directory) when AS was installed on the client machine, I just copied it think that was the port AS wanted to use. I havent check the ports yet because I wasnt sure which one I should be using, I was gonna test once I had all these entries where they are supposed to be.

This is my XML file that is going in appdata/v4 on server machine. My ports are different than your example Rob but I got the numbers from the ports listed in AS's sim connect file. Does it make any difference? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?> <SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0"> <Descr>SimConnect</Descr> <Filename>SimConnect.xml</Filename> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <SimConnect.Comm> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Protocol>IPv4</Protocol> <Scope>global</Scope> <Address>192.168.1.100</Address> <MaxClients>64</MaxClients> <Port>500</Port> <MaxRecvSize>4096</MaxRecvSize> <DisableNagle>True</DisableNagle> </SimConnect.Comm> <SimConnect.Comm> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Protocol>IPv4</Protocol> <Scope>local</Scope> <MaxClients>64</MaxClients> <Address>127.0.0.1</Address> <Port>500</Port> <MaxRecvSize>4096</MaxRecvSize> <DisableNagle>True</DisableNagle> </SimConnect.Comm> </SimBase.Document>

So for what Im trying to do, I really dont need the .ini file? However, Just so Im clear on this too, by manually adding you mean create a notepad file with the information in it and name it? Just want to go over the steps once more. All service packs installed on both PCs Install AS on Client Machine Install ASConnect on server machine Simconnect.cfg (with server ip added) in my documents on client machine Simconnect.xml (with server ip added) in Appdata/Roaming/LM/P3DV4 on server machine Also add server ip addresses to sim connect cfg and xml in Client Program Files (x86)/HiFi/AS_P3Dv4/simconnect files Thats it, right? I couldnt agree more. This has been an absolute nightmare, I would even be willing to pay more for 3rd party apps (or even updates) that had 'install and go' network capability.

Thank you, that made the router setup easy. So im reading through your guide, on page 117 youre showing simconnect.INI file in your documents/P3DFiles. I just fresh installed V4.1 and loaded all of the service packs that come with V4. I dont see the simconnect.ini file in my documents. Does V4.1 put it somewhere else? Another question I have is on page 121 with the xml file. You talk about the two ip addresses to edit in the xml, global and scope. Before I was only adding my server (p3d) pc's ip address for global. Where does the local host scope address come from? Thanks for your help Rob.
